What Kind Of Truck Do You Drive?
The other night I was having a heated discussion about forums with a good friend of mine. He is in the business of selling trucks and I told him that he should advertise on this forum.
He believe it or not things forums are a waste of time. To him it is a place where everyone goes to whine and complain. Now believe me this is where things got out of hand because when I know I am right I will fight till the end. So I said I can prove that forums will work for your business so now I need your help. Tell me what kind of truck you drive for your business. See I look at this forum as a way for me to keep a pulse on our industry all over the country and I have found out that since I have been here that we all kind of all have the same types of problems. But yes it somewhat makes you feel good because I am not alone. I believe in helping people so I give my thoughts on marketing and I hope I have touched the lives of some of you and inspired you to look at your marketing. See after I do my home work and add up all the kind of trucks we all drive for work I will take the time to prove to my buddy that not only do forums work but you can use it as a tool to sell more products. So I will thank you all in advance for helping and it you choose to leave a note to my friend I will make sure good or bad that he reads everyone.

Re: What Kind Of Truck Do You Drive?
2004 Dodge Dakota
biggest "small pickup" I could find. I do a lot of urban work so I need something that I can fit into fairly tight parking spaces. I added on a fold-down bed extender, so I can fit in 4x8 sheets of gypsum board. I also installed a set of Supersprings. They really improved the handling. Plus, I can put 1,700 lbs of stuff in the back without my headlights pointing skyward. |
